Nice keris. Could you make a photo of the blade in the sheath looking down from the top so that we can see the fit? Thanks!

A picture looking down on the blade inserted in the wrongko would be very helpful.
Did you notice that there is an entity contained in the sorsoron on one side?

Hello Séverin,

The wrongko could be from East Java/Madura, a seldom seen form. Here are a few examples taken from this old thread: http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/showth...ghlight=madura

Best regards,
Detlef

I'd be inclined to place the wrongko as Madura, the hilt I cannot say with any certainty, the blade as Madura/East Jawa.
